DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Detailed description will be further made in the following to the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings and the embodiments. It should be understood that, detailed embodiments described herein are intended only to explain the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. In addition, it should be also noted that, for the convenience of description, only some contents but not all of the contents related to the present disclosure are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

Before describing the exemplary embodiments in more detail, it should be mentioned that some exemplary embodiments are described as processes or methods depicted by flow charts. Although the flow chart describes various operations (or steps) as a sequential process, a plurality of operations may be implemented in parallel, concurrently, or simultaneously. In addition, the sequence of various operations may be rearranged. The process may be terminated when the operations for the process are completed, but may also have additional steps not included in the accompanying drawings. The process may correspond to a method, a function, a procedure, a subroutine, a subprogram, etc.

FIG. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a method for transmitting a message according to embodiments of the present disclosure. This embodiment may be applied to a condition where transmitting the message data is performed in a distributed data transmission system. The method may be executed by an apparatus for transmitting a message. The apparatus may be implemented in form of software and/or hardware, and integrated in any input device having a network communication function. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the method for transmitting the message according to embodiments of the present disclosure includes the following.

At block S110, a current message transmission packet is sent to an output device based on current message data obtained from a message provider. The current message transmission packet includes the current message data and transmission progress information.

Generally, in the distributed data transmission system, the message data of the message provider may be transmitted to a message storage device normally. However, in an actual application, an accidental error such as a machine failure, a code change and a strong dependence jitter may cause the system to restart, thereby causing that the message data may not be transmitted normally. In order to ensure that an affected operator may recover quickly from an interruption state or in order to reduce a workload after restarting, after the above condition occurs, there is a need to improve a transmission mode for the message data in a streaming transmission system.

In this embodiment, FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a method for transmitting a message according to embodiments of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 2, the streaming transmission system includes a plurality of streaming partitions. Each streaming partition may include an input device and an output device. The input device and the output device in the same streaming partition correspond to the same message transmission process. Therefore, the streaming transmission system includes a plurality of input devices and output devices. The message provider may or may not be a data source, as long as the message data may be provided to the message storage device. In addition, a persistent storage system is a storage system independent of the streaming transmission system. The persistent storage system may be a transactional persistent storage system, to ensure that all transmission tasks of a plurality of messages are executed or not executed when there is atomicity among the transmission tasks of the plurality of messages in a transaction submitted.

In this embodiment, taking a transmission process of the message data as an example for exemplary description, referring to FIG. 2, in a flow 1 of a message transmission, the input device in the streaming transmission system may receive current message data subscribed from the message provider. After obtaining the current message data through subscribing, the input device may generate a current message transmission packet correspondingly according to the obtained current message data, and ensure that the current message transmission packet includes the current message data and transmission progress information of the current message data. In a flow 2 of the message transmission, the input device of the streaming transmission system may send the current message transmission packet generated by the input device to the output device of the streaming transmission system, such that the output device may obtain the current message data in the current message transmission packet and transmit the obtained current message data to the message storage device.

In an alternative implementation of this embodiment, the transmission progress information includes a global system message-transmission progress and position information of the current message data in the message provider.

In this embodiment, the position information of the current message data in the message provider refers to a position of an ID of the current message data in the message provider. The position of the ID of the current message data in the message provider is a message start point of the message data transmission at this time. The global system message-transmission progress is configured to represent a transmission completing progress of the current message data in the streaming transmission system. For example, both the input device and the output device of the streaming transmission system have a plurality of transmission partitions, and each transmission partition has a completing writing time. For example, when times of most transmission partitions are 10:00, and a time of a certain transmission partition is 9:50, the global system message-transmission progress of this transmission partition is recorded as 9:50, and the data before this 9:50 has been completed.

At block S120, when a streaming transmission system is in a normal transmission state, an acknowledgement packet that is fed back after the output device sends the current message data to a message storage device, is obtained.

In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 2, in the streaming transmission system, the output device may normally receive the current message transmission packet sent by the input device, and obtain the current message data and the transmission progress information included in the obtained current message transmission packet. When the streaming transmission system is in the normal transmission state, the output device may transmit the obtained current message data to the message storage device in a flow 3 of the message transmission. In the streaming transmission system, after the output device may transmit the obtained current message data to the message storage device normally, referring to a flow 5 of the message transmission, the output device may feed back the acknowledgement packet to the input device. The acknowledgement packet includes the transmission progress information of the current message data. The input device may receive the acknowledgement packet sent by the output device. Alternatively, the transmission progress information includes the global system message-transmission progress and the position information of the current message data in the message provider.

At block S130, the transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet is sent to a persistent storage system, such that the persistent storage system stores the transmission progress information as input progress information of the current message data.

In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 2, after obtaining the acknowledgement packet fed back after the output device sends the current message data to the message storage device, the input device may send the obtained acknowledgement packet to the persistent storage system. In detail, referring to a flow 6 of the message transmission, the input device may send the transmission progress information included in the acknowledgement packet to the persistent storage system. The persistent storage system may store the transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet, sent by the input device, and take the transmission progress information as the input progress information of the current message data. In the above way, during transmitting the current message data, persistence processing may be performed on the input progress of the current message data according to an output result of the current message data, such that there is no need to perform persistence processing on the current message data. Since there is no need to perform persistence processing on the current message data, the time and the resource cost caused by performing persistence processing on the current message data may be avoided, and the amount of persisted data may be minimized.

On the basis of the above embodiment, alternatively, after sending the transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet to the persistent storage system, the method further includes: when detecting that the persistent storage system stores the input progress information of the current message data, generating a removing duplication instruction for the current message data, and sending the removing duplication instruction to the message provider, to indicate the message provider to delete the current message data.

In this embodiment, when the persistent storage system stores the input progress information of the current message data, it indicates that the output device already sends the current message data to the message storage device, and the current message data at the message provider is duplicated with the current message data sent to the message storage device. For this, the input device may detect whether the persistent storage system stores the input progress information of the current message data. When it is detected that the persistent storage system stores the input progress information of the current message data, the removing duplication instruction for the current message data is generated, and the generated removing duplication instruction is sent to the message provider, to indicate the message provider to delete the current message data included in the message provider.

With the solution for transmitting the message according to embodiments of the present disclosure, the input device of the message transmission system may obtain the message data from the message provider and send the message data to the output device, and the output device feeds back the acknowledgement packet to the input device after sending the message data to the message storage device. During transmitting the message data, persistence processing is performed on the input progress of the message data based on the output result of the message data, thus there is no need to perform persistence processing on the message data. Meanwhile, the consistency of the message data and the system transmission progress may be ensured by performing persistence processing on the input progress of the message data, thereby avoiding problems such as message loss and message duplication caused by the system abnormality, and improving the message transmission efficiency.

FIG. 3 is a flow chart illustrating a method for transmitting a message according to embodiments of the present disclosure. This embodiment may be applied to a condition where transmitting the message data is performed in a distributed data transmission system. The method may be executed by an apparatus for transmitting a message. The apparatus may be implemented in form of software and/or hardware, and integrated in any output device having a network communication function. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the method for transmitting the message according to embodiments of the present disclosure includes the following.

At block S310, when a streaming transmission system is in a normal transmission state, a current message transmission packet is received. The current message transmission packet is sent by an input device based on current message data obtained from a message provider. The current message transmission packet includes the current message data and transmission progress information.

In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 2, in the streaming transmission system, the input device may generate the current message transmission packet according to the current message data obtained from the message provider, and transmit the generated current message transmission packet to the output device. When the streaming transmission system is in the normal transmission state, the output device may receive the current message transmission packet sent by the input device normally. The current message transmission packet includes the current message data and the transmission progress information.

Alternatively, the transmission progress information includes a global system message-transmission progress and position information of the current message data in the message provider.

At block S320, the current message data included in the current message transmission packet is sent to a message storage device.

In this embodiment, the output device may obtain the current message data included in the current message transmission packet, and transmit the current message data in the current message transmission packet to the message storage device for processing when the streaming transmission system is in the normal transmission state.

At block S330, output compress information of the current message data is sent to a persistent storage system after the current message data is sent to the message storage device.

In this embodiment, after sending the current message data to the message storage device normally, the output device may send the output compress information of the current message data to the persistent storage system, and the output compress information of the current message data is stored in the persistent storage system. The output compress information of the current message data is configured to indicate that the current message data is transmitted to a file system corresponding to the message storage device, and the current message data is concreted in a concrete writing position of the file system. In the above way, during transmitting the current message data, persistence processing may be performed on the output progress of the current message data according to an output result of the current message data, such that there is no need to perform persistence processing on the current message data. Since there is no need to perform persistence processing on the current message data, the time and the resource cost caused by performing persistence processing on the current message data may be avoided, and the amount of persisted data may be minimized.

At block S340, an acknowledgement packet is fed back to the input device, such that the input device sends the transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet to the persistent storage system.

In this embodiment, after the output progress information of the current message data is sent and stored in the persistent storage system, the output device may send the acknowledgement packet to the input device, such that the input device may send the transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet to the persistent storage system for storing after receiving the acknowledgement packet. The acknowledgement packet includes the transmission progress information of the current message data.

On the basis of the above embodiments, alternatively, the method for transmitting the message according to embodiments of the present disclosure may also include actions at blocks S350-S370 which are not illustrated in FIG. 4.

FIG. 4 is a flow chart illustrating a method for transmitting a message according to embodiments of the present disclosure.

At block S310, when a streaming transmission system is in a normal transmission state, a current message transmission packet is received. The current message transmission packet is sent by an input device based on current message data obtained from a message provider. The current message transmission packet includes the current message data and transmission progress information.

At block S320, the current message data included in the current message transmission packet is sent to a message storage device.

At block S330, output compress information of the current message data is sent to a persistent storage system after the current message data is sent to the message storage device.

At block S340, an acknowledgement packet is fed back to the input device, such that the input device sends the transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet to the persistent storage system.

At block S350, when the streaming transmission system is in an abnormal restarting state, after any current message transmission packet sent by the input device is received, it is determined whether the persistent storage system stores the output compress information of the current message data.

In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 2, when the streaming transmission system is abnormal, the message transmission from the input device to the output device may be interrupted, thus a normal transmission operation for the current message data may not be performed. When the streaming transmission system is in an abnormal restarting state, that is, the streaming transmission system is transformed from an abnormal interrupted state to a system restarting state, in order to quickly resume the interrupted message transmission, and as far as possible to avoid a huge workload brought by performing data transmission again after the streaming transmission system is restarted, the output device may detect whether the persistent storage system stores the output compress information of the current message data after the input device sends any message transmission packet to the output device.

At block S360, when the persistent storage system stores the output compress information of the current message data, the acknowledgement packet is fed back to the input device, such that the input device indicates the message provider to perform removing duplication on the current message data based on the acknowledgement packet for the current message data.

In this embodiment, when the persistent storage system stores the output compress information of the current message data, it indicates that the output device already sends the current message data included in the message transmission packet to the message storage device before the streaming transmission system is in the abnormal restarting state. In this condition, there is no need to send the current message data downstream. Meanwhile, since the output device sends the current message data to the message storage device already, the input device needs to delete the same current message data in the message storage device correspondingly, to ensure data consistency. In detail, the output device may feed back the acknowledgement packet for the current message data to the input device, such that the input device indicates the message provider to perform removing duplication processing on the current message data according to the acknowledgement packet of the current message data, and duplication of the current message data in the message storage device and the message provider may be avoided.

At block S370, when the persistent storage system does not store the output compress information of the current message data, the streaming transmission system is switched to the normal transmission state and message transmission operation is performed.

In this embodiment, when it is detected that the persistent storage system does not store the output compress information of the current message data, it indicates that the output device does not send the current message data to the message storage device before the streaming transmission system restarts abnormally. In this condition, the message storage device does not store the current message data, and the current message data is only stored in the message provider, that is, the current message data in the message provider is not duplicated with the current message data in the message storage device. In this condition, the streaming transmission system may be switched to the normal transmission state, and the message transmission operation is performed, such that the input device receives the current message data sent by the message provider, the current message data is sent to the message storage device by the output device, and the input compress and the output progress of the current message data are stored in the persistent storage system.

With the solution for transmitting the message according to embodiments of the present disclosure, the input device of the streaming transmission system may obtain the message data from the message provider and send the message data to the output device, and the output device feeds back the acknowledgement packet to the input device after sending the message data to the message storage device. During transmitting the message data, persistence processing is performed on the output progress of the message data based on the output result of the message data, thus there is no need to perform persistence processing on the message data. Meanwhile, the consistency of the message data and the system transmission progress may be ensured by performing persistence processing on the output progress of the current message data, thereby reducing problems such as message loss and message duplication caused by the system abnormality, and improving the message transmission efficiency.

Claims

1. A method for transmitting a message, executable by an input device, and comprising:

sending a current message transmission packet to an output device, the current message transmission packet comprising current message data and transmission progress information;

obtaining an acknowledgement packet from the output device; and

sending transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet to a persistent storage system, such that the persistent storage system stores the transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet as input progress information of the current message data.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

obtaining the current message data from a message provider; and

generating the current message transmission packet based on the current message data.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein obtaining the current message data from the message provider comprises:

obtaining the current message data from the message provider by a subscribing mode.

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

when detecting that the persistent storage system stores the input progress information of the current message data, generating a removing duplication instruction for the current message data, and sending the removing duplication instruction to the message provider, to indicate the message provider to delete the current message data.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the transmission progress information comprises a global system message-transmission progress and position information of the current message data in the message provider.

6. A method for transmitting a message, executable by an output device, and comprising:

when a streaming transmission system is in a normal transmission state, receiving a current message transmission packet from an input device, the current message transmission packet comprising current message data and transmission progress information; and

feeding back an acknowledgement packet to the input device after sending the current message data to a message storage device, such that the input device sends the transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet to a persistent storage system.

7. The method of claim 6, after sending the current message data to the message storage device, and before feeding back the acknowledgement packet to the input device, further comprising:

sending output compress information of the current message data to the persistent storage system.

8. The method of claim 7, further comprising:

when the streaming transmission system is in an abnormal restarting state, after receiving any current message transmission packet sent by the input device, determining whether the persistent storage system stores the output compress information of the current message data; and

when the persistent storage system stores the output compress information of the current message data, feeding back the acknowledgement packet to the input device, such that the input device indicates the message provider to perform removing duplication on the current message data based on the acknowledgement packet for the current message data.

9. The method of claim 8, further comprising:

when the persistent storage system does not store the output compress information of the current message data, switching the streaming transmission system to the normal transmission state and performs message transmission operation.

10. The method of claim 6, wherein the transmission progress information comprises a global system message-transmission progress and position information of the current message data in the message provider.

11. A non-transient computer readable medium having a computer program stored thereon, wherein a method for transmitting a message is implemented when executed by the computer program, and the method comprises:

sending a current message transmission packet to an output device, the current message transmission packet comprising current message data and transmission progress information;

obtaining an acknowledgement packet from the output device; and

sending transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet to a persistent storage system, such that the persistent storage system stores the transmission progress information in the acknowledgement packet as input progress information of the current message data.

12. The non-transient computer readable medium of claim 11, wherein the method further comprises:

obtaining the current message data from a message provider; and

generating the current message transmission packet based on the current message data.

13. The non-transient computer readable medium of claim 12, wherein obtaining the current message data from the message provider comprises:

obtaining the current message data from the message provider by a subscribing mode.

14. The non-transient computer readable medium of claim 11, wherein the method further comprises:

when detecting that the persistent storage system stores the input progress information of the current message data, generating a removing duplication instruction for the current message data, and sending the removing duplication instruction to the message provider, to indicate the message provider to delete the current message data.
